Hi again guys, I know i posted this a year ago (finally got brave and pushed into try to do an upgrade). Is it the same procedure and are there some limit on how high (or recommended version) i ...

I just want to say that mdgm-ntgr and the rest of Netgear staff rock!
I followed the instructions to upgrade my old 4.x.x nas to a new 6.x.x version!
Backup.. Backup.. Backup.... Check my backups... Install PREP4TOR6_0.1-x86.bin from frontview. install R4toR6_6.3.5.bin from frontview. restart.. Put all my data back and hopefully run os6.3.5
And it worked like a charm!
Thank you all for your great work!!
1 side note, is it possible to:
1: have 24 hour clock
2: a app for handling cron works?? :-)
Best regards
Hans

also I'm wondering if there is any benefit from increasing from 4GB to 8GB (it was on the stock 1GB until the other day). I will be using as an iscsi tarrgent for VCenter 5.5. Also can I use both the nics to gain faster access?

You can use both nics (either teamed or separately).
Whether 8 GB memory has any benefit depends on the memory needs of the applications you are running.

Thanks, what about the bios upgrade so I can use the e7600 processor, presently on 10/03/2008 FLAME6-MB V1.6, how would I go about it is there a guide?

Took a punt on the bios bin chirpa posted. After a reboot bios now 2.0. Then I swapped out the cpu for an e7600 and happy days!

Where did you find the bios.bin file? i have tried to find it.
How did you check your bios version?
I'm running Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7400 @ 2.80GHz on 4GB ram for ages and i have not had on issue at all.
No fan problems or others...
